Video | Five Hong Kong wedding photographers who can capture your big day in style
Whether you want a fairytale fantasy, a high fashion photoshoot, a documentary-style journal or just a crazy abstract concept, these five photographers are ready to show you and your partner in the best light
Finding a photographer for your big day is one of the most important decisions you have to make while planning your wedding. It is crucial to find a photographer whose style matches your personality and preferences.
Here are five great Hong Kong photographers with their own distinct approach to wedding photography.
Most creative
Tang Ying-ki, perhaps the wildest wedding photographer in town, is full of crazy, out-of-the-box ideas. He goes to great lengths to tell the newlyweds’ story visually. This includes staging elaborate backgrounds, including stitching 99 photos together to form a final image.

For a couple whose husband was taking care of his sick wife, Tang had both of them sitting in artificial snow while the groom knitted a fiery red scarf around the bride’s neck, symbolising the warmth he brought her.

Glamour
Wedding shots by CTKKIT Photography scream Vogue and could almost pass for magazine spreads. Chan Kit began his career as a commercial photographer shooting for fashion magazines and advertisements, and it has influenced his pictures.

We love his Rene Magritte-inspired balloon photo as well as his romantic top-down shot. There may not be any iconic buildings in the background, but you can definitely tell it’s taken in Hong Kong.

Studio portraits
If you think studio portraits are serious and realistic photos, Ben Tang will make you think again. The award-winning photographer counts celebrity such as actress Myolie Wu and actor Edmond So among his clients. Photo By Ben owns a 10,000 sq ft studio in Kwun Tong, with more than 20 different backgrounds.

The advantage of shooting indoors, says Tang, is that all factors such as weather and light are under his control. The studio also offers a more private setting, so for those who are feeling sexy, Tang can clear the scene for bridal boudoir photos.
